Eyes?

I checked the images of different headcrabs on this page and read the text below the original half-life headcrab, stating that it has six eyes(!). Is this true? Because I can't see any of its "eyes". — Unsigned comment by HaggisHaglund

Black Mesa Gonarch

I was thinking we should use the BM Gonarch for the Gonarch image because it's higher-res, and maybe also for the standard Headcrab.

HL2 Headcrab can live in toxic waste is a lie.

Only the zombie can survive in toxic waste and in water. If you have an Headcrab without a body attached to it try and lure it into the toxic waste in Water Hazard or Anticitizen One and see it for yourself. El1tes (talk) 14:56, 4 October 2023 (MSK)

Zombification time dispute

In Half-Life: Uplink, there is a scientist with a headcrab on him who seems clueless to his location and status. When you kill the headcrab on him, he will yell "No!" and promptly die. If you stand there, of course, he will not become a zombie. Does this raise any questions about the zombification process? — Unsigned comment by 64.88.19.37

I've adjusted the wording to add more ambiguity to the timing as it has never been explicitly stated, but ultimately the process seems to take as long as however the game requires it to at any specific moment. Marphy (talk) 17:16, 22 June 2025 (MSK)
